HI there!

I actually just met with Dr. Nicholson and his 'team' this last Thursday (1/20). I was very impressed with him. He's young and cocky and incredibly knowledgeable. He answered every question my husband and I threw at him. He definitely doesn't sugar coat anything, and he lets you know up front that the sleeve is a tool, and you have to really want this change in your life. He gave me a three ring binder of information to go over and I left with a surgery date of March 15, 2011! I am thrilled beyond words, and if the timing were better, I'd have surgery tomorrow.

I have researched Dr. Nicholson extensively and thought enough of him (and myself!) to drive 175 miles away from home to see him.

Best of luck to you! I am really happy for you~

Take care,

Karen

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
